The council first moved to approve the consent agenda and claims. The clerk presented an itemized vendor list with individual entries (for example, supplies, utilities, contract payments and insurance) that summed to a claims total of $193,265.27; the motion to approve the claims passed on roll call with Council members Kayla Shull, Teresa Bruening, Tom Lownik and Bob Murley voting aye and Mahler recorded absent.
On contracting, the council accepted the low bid from Bainbridge Construction for the Raccoon Valley Sewer Relocation after a motion from Tom Lownik and a second from Bob Murley; the measure passed on roll call. The council also authorized the City Administrator to prepare an engagement letter with the law firm Dorsey & Whitney related to pool rehabilitation financing (motion by Bob Murley; seconded by Teresa Bruening), and that authorization passed by roll call.
On personnel, the council approved appointment of Doug Geery for the natural gas operator and public works support staff position after a motion by Teresa Bruening and second by Bob Murley; the appointment passed on roll call. Council also moved to refer further discussion on development of the middle school to the Housing Committee (report back April 9, 2024) and to refer consideration of a proposed land sale from Kurt Sumner to the PRNR (Parks & Rec & Natural Resources) Committee; both referrals passed on roll call.
The council also approved a proclamation declaring Problem Gambling Awareness Month. Tom Lownik introduced Ordinance 2024-327, an amendment to chapter 65 (stop or yield requirements), and a motion by Bob Murley to approve the introduction/reading was adopted by roll call.
The meeting proceeded to a council forum and adjourned at 5:57 p.m. The minutes do not include verbatim quotes from speakers for these items; the record lists the motions, movers and final roll-call tallies.
